And Nick Makes 3…

Author: Jessica

Prologue

Jessica’s POV

I was already 2 minutes late, I had to get to the babysitter’s house so I could pick Emma up, mom dropped her off this morning and I told her I’d be able to pick her up after I got out of school. I stopped by the mall with a bunch of friends to pick some food up from the food court. I was in line getting my food and when I finally got it I quickly went over to the table my friends were all sitting at, before I could reach the table someone walked right into me and my bag of food fell sending my French fries everywhere. I looked up at the hand reaching out to me and saw the bluest eyes I’d ever seen before, he was so handsome. I accepted his hand and he helped me up, from then on our love blossomed and the rest is history.

Nick’s POV

I’d finally finished the in-store promo I was doing for my sophomore album that was being released in 3 weeks. I was starving, I hadn’t eaten since dinner the night before and here it is…4pm now! I raced on up to the food court taking the chance of being mobbed by teenage girls. I was too busy focusing on making it to the food court safely that I didn’t notice the young blonde in front of me and I stormed right into her. I looked down and saw her fries and bag of food on the floor. I couldn’t help but notice how beautiful she was too. I extended my hand out to her and she looked at me for a second with beautiful hazel brown eyes. I smiled apologetically and she held my hand, I raised her to her feet and our story after that is complete romance and love.

Author: Jessica

Jessica’s POV

“Here…let me help you.” He lifted me up and then bent down to pick my food up and he threw it out. “Come on, I’ll buy you more. I’m really sorry about that. I should’ve watched where I was going.” I was drawn to him, he was gorgeous. I hit myself for even thinking that. Here I am 17 a Junior in High school and with the past I’ve got not to mention my “baggage” he would never look at me. We walked back over to the food stand and he ordered himself something and I ordered the same thing I just ordered before.
“Thank you…” I said to him while we were walking away after getting our food.
“No, don’t mention it, I’m sorry I knocked you over.” I laughed a little.
“Its okay.” He stopped at a table and put his stuff down.
“Would you like to sit with me?” I looked at him and over at my friends.
”Um…one second okay?” He nodded and I put my food down and ran to them.
“Jess who’s that hot guy over there?” My friend Cacee spoke first.
“Um…just some guy I met. I’m gonna go eat with him.” They all looked at me and told me they’d see me in school tomorrow. I ran back to the table and sat next to him. “Sorry, I just had to say bye to my friends.” He looked up and nodded his head.
“Was I interrupting?”
“No, no…they’re heading out soon anyways.”
“Oh okay…by the way I’m Nick Lachey.” I looked up and then the light bulb went off. I KNEW I had seen him somewhere and as soon as he said his name I figured out who he was. I turned to him.
“Are you *the* Nick Lachey?” He laughed and nodded his head. I’d never really listened to him but did enjoy his music.
“That would be me. You’re not some crazy lunatic fan are you?” I laughed.
“No, I’ve heard of you and I enjoy your music but I never really have time to listen to music and do the cool teenage stuff.”
“Oh…how come?” I looked down and picked at my fries.
“Eh…you know. This and that…it keeps me busy.” He nodded and ate more of his hamburger. “Oh…Iâ€℠¢m Jessica.” I forgot to introduce myself. “Simpson…Jessica Simpson.” He smiled and reached his hand out to shake mine.
“Nice to meet you Jessica Simpson.” I giggled at him. We ate the rest of our meals and then both got up to leave. I really didn’t want to go and be away from him but I had to.

Nick’s POV

I couldn’t believe I bumped into her. She was beautiful. She had long blonde hair and beautiful brown eyes. She wasn’t very tall and looking at her voluptuous body and curvy figure I definitely would have guessed her to be older then a high school student. Her voice was so gentle and quiet. And her smile lit up a room and that’s what attracted her to me to most, her smile and bubbly personality. I wanted to take her out but she was in high school so she probably didn’t want to be around me…that and the fact she probably already had a boyfriend. I threw her garbage out for her and asked if I could walk her to her car. She nodded and I tried reaching for her hand, she didn’t mind…at least she didn’t seem to mind. She stopped in front of her car and stood by the door. I looked at her and then looked down.
“So…do you think maybe, I dunno…I could take you out for a real meal?” She laughed and that made my eyes light up…her smile and her laugh, it made anyone smile…it had to.
“Nick…you don’t’ want to be involved with someone like me.” I was confused.
“What do you mean?” I stepped closer.
“I mean…look it was nice of you to treat me to food today but I’m not a girl you want to be with. I’m in high school, I’m 17 for one thing…you’reâ⠬¦you’re…⠀
“22…” I chimed in and helped her.
“22…plus you’re famous and rich and handsome and…and I have a ba…” I stopped her and leaned forward and just kissed her…I just did it. I didn’t think I just kissed her and I felt her wrap her arms around my neck. She finally pulled away and smiled at me.
“So…what do ya say about dinner tonight? A REAL dinner?” She nodded and wrote her number down for me.
“Okay…I can’t be out long it’s a school night.”
“Its okay…just dinner.”
“Okay…Iâ€⠢ll see you tonight then.” I nodded and smiled. I kissed her cheek and made sure she got out okay before walking to my car trying to go unnoticed. I got in and pulled out of the parking lot with no problems.

Jessica’s POV

I looked at the clock.
“[bad word]…now I’m 20 minutes late.” I sped over to the babysitter’s house. Nina…she was the sweetest woman ever; she watched Emma everyday and was always there when we needed a last minute sitter. I pulled into her driveway and went up to the door and walked in. “Hey Nina…I’m so sorry I’m late.” She came out smiling.
“Oh sweetie, you know I’m always around, but your mother picked Emma up about 5 minutes ago.” I cursed under my breath.
“Okay, thanks again Nina, I’ll see you tomorrow!” I ran out the door and back into my car. I drove to my house and saw mama’s car in the driveway. I knew she was going to kill me. I grabbed my backpack and purse and ran in the house. I heard mama talking to Emma and I followed her voice into the family room. She looked up at me as soon as I walked in.
“Jessica! Where in the hell have you been?” She was definitely pissed.
“I’m so sorry mama…” She handed Emma over to me.
“She’s YOUR responsibility Jessica! Not mine! She’s YOUR daughter. You need to be here when you’re supposed to be.” I took Emma and kissed her head.
“Mama I know, and I’m so sorry. I’m going to go feed her supper and then put her down for the night, can you watch her for a couple hours. I have a date.” She rolled her eyes at me. My mama was my best friend but she was pissed at me right now.
“Of course…when can I ever say no to you Jessica?” I smiled and kissed my mama.
“Love you mama!” I went in the kitchen with Emma. I got her a bottle, she’s 7 months old, and she looks exactly like me. My parents, my mama especially have been helping me from day one. I’d slept with the guy once, found out I was pregnant and as soon as he found out he ran. So my family has been very supportive, I grew up in a very Christian home, and they would never turn their back on me. I fed Emma and then brought her upstairs and put her to bed.
“I love you princess.” I kissed her little forehead and watched her close her eyes. I smiled and quietly walked out. I went into my room right next to hers and got myself ready for my date. I wore a jean mini skirt, a white halter and a nice white shawl. I slipped on a pair of my wedge sandals and went to work on my hair and make up when the phone rang.
“Jess…itâ€⠄¢s for you!” I heard my mama yell. I looked at the clock and saw the time; 6:02. I ran into my room and picked up my phone. It was Nick…he told me he’d be there in 20 minutes to take me to dinner. I finished with my make up and hair and grabbed my purse. I checked on Emma once more before heading down the stairs at the same time as the doorbell rang. I was halfway down the stairs when I saw Ashlee opening the door. I sighed. ‘oh no’ I thought.
“Oh my gosh! Do you know who you are?” She was screaming and mama had walked in by now. “You’re Nick Lachey…THE Nick Lachey!” She was squealing and my mama jumped in.
“Ashlee go get your sister.”
“I’m here.” I walked down and Nick smiled at me. I walked over to him and he handed me flowers.
“Thank you Nick.” I kissed his cheek. My mama took the flowers for me.
“Have her back before 11. It is a school night after all.” Nick nodded.
“I will.”
“Have fun you two.” Nick and I walked out to his car…he was driving a silver BMW…holy [bad word] I thought to myself. He opened the door for me and I got in. He drove us to the Ivy and I couldn’t believe all the celebrities that were there. We had our own private table and it was in candlelight. He held my hand the entire dinner and I don’t think I’d ever laughed as much as I did tonight. The night was perfect and a bit overwhelming; I mean he was a celebrity. After dinner he drove me to the beach and he and I walked around for a bit holding hands and laughing. The whole time all I could think about was when or if I should tell him about Emma. I mean I didn’t know if he wanted to see me again. Finally at 10 of 11 he drove me home and walked me to my door. He stood there and leaned down for a kiss. I wrapped my arms around him like earlier that day and pulled away.
“Thanks for tonight, I had a great time.” I smiled and kissed him again.
“Me too…I’ll call you tomorrow when you get home from school?” I nodded.
“Okay…call me about 3 or a little after.
“Okay, I will.”
“Night Jess.” I kissed him one more time and walked into the house…11pm on the dot!

And Nick Makes 3…

Author: Jessie

Jessica’s POV

I walked in the door and mama was in the living room with daddy watching the TV. They were just waiting for me to get in. Daddy kissed me goodnight and then went upstairs knowing mama and I wanted to be alone so I could tell her all about my date, like I always did.
“So…how was it?” She was grinning at me. I smiled and sat next to her.
“Mama it was the best date I’ve ever been on.”
“Could it be the fact he’s a celebrity AND 22?” I looked down, I was waiting for that to come out.
“Come on mama…that doesn’t matter. And 22…he’s only 5 years older then me.”
“Jessica…just be careful, we’ve got one Emma already.” I rolled my eyes.
“Mama, that was ONCE…I did it once.”
“Yeah and look what happened just ONCE!” I sighed.
“I really like Nick mama.” We were quiet.
“Well…did you tell him about Emma?” I stayed quiet and then shook my head.
“Not yet…no.”
“Do you plan on it? Jessica you cannot keep it a secret long, he’s going to need to know if y’all are seeing each other.” I looked up.
“I know mama but I didn’t think it would be right to flat out say ‘oh by the way I’m 17 and have a 7 month old baby girl.”
“I’m just saying…”
“Well thanks for saying it, I need to get ready for bed I have school in the morning.” I kissed her goodnight and went upstairs. I checked on Emma and then went to my own room. She got me up twice in the night, she was getting much better with sleeping through the night. I woke up the next morning; dropped Emma off at Nina’s and then headed for my cl[arse]es. I wouldn’t keep my mind off Nick all day.

~* 3 Weeks Later *~

Nick’s POV

I walked up to the Simpson’s doorstep and rang the doorbell. Tonight was me and Jessica’s 4th date; I was taking her to my place for a nice dinner. The past few dates have been the best ever. I’ve never had as much fun just talking with someone as I do with Jessica. It’s hard to believe she’s only in high school. She is very mature for her age. Since our first date we’ve talked every night on the phone before bed and I try and call her before school but can’t always. I met her mother and father, I only met her father briefly, but her mother is a very sweet lady…Joe I think will take some warming up to. My album was being released in 3 days and Jessica said she’d be my date, she was a little nervous about having to be in public and the media’s eye but I [arse]ured her it would be okay. The front door finally opened and Tina was there to greet me.
“Hey Nicholas…come on in. Jess is in the living room if you want to go get her, I have to finish up dinner before Joe gets home.” I nodded and smiled.
“Thanks Mrs. Simpson.”
“Nicholas…none of that Mrs. Simpson, it makes me feel old. Call me Tina.” I laughed.
“Thanks Tina…” I walked in and walked down the hall to the living room where I could hear Jess talking, I thought she was talking to Ashlee at first but she was talking with a baby voice.
“Emma…Emma†¦don’t pull mama’s hair. Come on be nice princess.” I watched from the doorway and saw Jessica holding the cutest baby girl I’d ever seen. She was dressed in a light pink dress and had little black Mary-Jane shoes on with a pink headband matching her dress. The little girl had little diamond studs in each ear; she had light blonde/brown hair and beautiful blue eyes. I stood there quietly. The baby was laughing. “Mama has to go; she’s got a date with Nick again.” Jess and the baby were smiling. “I love you…mama loves you so much.” She spoke in her baby voice to her daughter. She put the baby in her playpen and turned around which is when I realized she’d seen me. She looked down and I walked over to her, I reached my hand out and lifted her chin to meet my eyes. I didn’t question anything I just reached for her hand and walked out.
“Bye you two…I’ll see you tomorrow because I’m probably going to be in bed before y’all get home since it’s not a school night.” Jessica nodded and we both said goodbye to her mom. The car ride to my house was complete silence. I had no idea what I was supposed to say, it was awkward. I got out when we got to my house and opened her door for her. I held her hand and walked us up to my front doorstep.

Jessica’s POV

It had to be the most awkward 20 minutes of my life on our way to his house. I was going to tell him but I didn’t want him finding out this way. We pulled into his driveway and I couldn’t believe that was his house. I was in awe of it. He walked me up to his door and led me inside. I couldn’t believe someone lived in a home this big…alone! He brought me into the dining room where there was a candlelit dinner already set for us. Without saying anything he pulled my chair out and I sat down, he sat across from me. We ate in silence for about 10 minutes before I couldn’t’ take it anymore.
“She’s 7 months…” I spoke out of nowhere. He looked at me. I put my fork down. “My…my… my daughter, she’s uh…she’s 7 months.” He nodded and picked at his food. “Emma…that†™s her name.”
“Beautiful name.” He smiled. “She’s a beautiful baby too.” He didn’t have any emotion to his voice; he was just kind of saying it.
“Thank you…it’s not what you think.” He placed his fork on the plate loudly.
“And how do you know what I think Jessica?” He leaned back in his chair.
“I don’t…I†„¢m just saying…I didn’t sleep with a bunch of guys Nick…it was one guy, the only guy I’ve ever been with and we only had sex once. As soon as he found out I was pregnant he left and I haven’t spoken to him since. My parent’s have been helping me so I can finish school. I’m not the kind of girl that sleeps with everyone Nick, you have to believe me. It was a mistake what I did but to say Emma is a mistake would be a lie because I love her more then anything.” I was quiet and had a few tears in my eyes. “She’s my baby, she’s my little princess.”
“Why the hell didn’t you tell me? We’ve been talking to each other more then a month almost and you said NOTHING.” He stood up and was yelling. “You said nothing Jessica! A baby is something big, something someone you are dating should kinda maybe know about!” I had tears in my eyes.
”I know, and I wanted to tell you, but I didn’t want to scare you and just come out and say I had a baby.” He glared at me. He took his plate and mine and brought them in the kitchen. He left them on the counter not even bothering to empty them.
“Come on…I’m taking you home.” I looked up.
“Wha—†¦Ã¢â‚¬Â He took my hand and pulled me up. He led me to the front door.
“Tonight…the mood isn’t here and I need to…I just need space.” He led me to his car and drove me home, I cried and made sniffle noises now and then but that was all the noise in the car. He stopped and didn’t even get out of the car. “Hey…the album release party this week…” I looked at him and nodded, he was excited I’d finally agreed to go. “Forget it…you’ve got other obligations to care for and well…I can go solo. It’ll be fine. Thanks anyways.” Alls I did was nod my head, it’s all I could do. More tears threatened to fall but I didn’t let them not until I got out of the car. I walked to my front door without a goodbye from Nick and I walked in. I heard his car pull out after I had made it inside safely, so that meant he cared a little right? I mean he waited for me to get inside…I walked inside and both mama and daddy were in the kitchen. Daddy saw my tears and excused himself from the room. My mama put the dishtowel down and sat me in the chair, she kneeled down next to me.
“Baby, what happened?” I cried into her shoulder.
“He found out about Emma.”
“Oh…you told him and he didn’t like that?” I shook my head.
“No, he saw me with her tonight and I never got the chance to tell him. He’s so mad at me. He doesn’t want me there for his album release.” My mama kissed my head.
“Its okay baby…if he can’t be with you because you have a beautiful baby girl then he wasn’t worth it Jess.” I nodded my head.
“I know, but I thought he was different then the other guys mama. I thought he was different.” She wiped my tears and sent me upstairs. Alls I wanted to do was go to bed which is what I did. I cried myself to sleep.

And Nick Makes 3… Part 3

Author: Jessie

Jessica’s POV

It had been 4 days since I’d heard anything from Nick. His release was last night, I was thinking about him the entire night. Right now I was sitting at the table feeding Emma and watching TV. My eyes were so red and swollen from crying so much. I didn’t think Nick would effect me this much but he did…I cared about him a lot. I looked at the TV, Access Hollywood was on and I would’ve switched the channel but I saw Nick on the screen. They were talking about his album sales…they were amazing. His album was expected to reach the 500,000 sale point within the first week of release. I finished feeding Emma and smiled at the screen. He might be mad at me but I was still happy and proud of him. Emma must’ve been too because I saw her smiling and making happy baby noises at the TV. I looked over at her and thought about how precious she was to me when my thoughts were interrupted by the ringing telephone.

Nick’s POV

I finally had the courage to pick the phone up and call her today. It was the day after my album release. I was more then happy about the sales reports but the one thing that was missing to make me happier was Jessica. So what she had a baby? Shouldn’t that make me want to be with her more? So I can love her and her baby…so I can help them both. I care about her so I should be able to care about her baby right? I dialed her number and heard the ringing. Finally I heard her angelic voice on the other line.
“Hello…†I was quiet for a moment.
“Hey…its me…Nick.”
“Yeah, I know who you are Nick.” I laughed nervously.
“Right…sorry.â⠬ More silence. “So…howâ€⠢s Emma?” She was quiet this time.
“Why do you care?” I sighed.
“Jess…I do care. I’m sorry I acted like a jerk. I was taken by surprise. I do NOT think ANY less of you, I think you’re even stronger for being able to take care of a baby and keep up with school.”
“You really think that?”
“Yeah…Iâ€⠢m sure you’re a great mom.”
“I try to be.” I could hear her smile through the phone.
“So anyways…back to my question. How is she?”
“Well…I think she’s getting a little congested. Maybe a little cold. But she’s good. She’s a Nick Lachey fan.” We both laughed.
“She is is she?”
“Yeah, she saw you on the TV today and was smiling and making these cute baby noises at your picture.” I laughed again. I had to see Jessica. I missed her so much.
“Well, why don’t you and Emma come over tonight? Maybe we could just spend the day hanging around my house?” I was nervous she wouldn’t want to see me again.
“Umm…Iâ€⠢d like that.”
“I’ll pick you up in 10 minutes?”
“Okay, bye Nick.” I smiled.
“Bye Jessica.” I left and drove to Jess’ house. I knocked on the door and she answered. I leaned down and kissed her. She let me in and walked me into the living room. Emma was in her carrier and all set to go. She really was a cute baby. I smiled and Jessica grabbed a bag with Emma’s toys.
“Ready Jess…?” She nodded.
“Do you want to take her or you still nervous?” I laughed.
“I can do it.” I reached down and lifted her carrier and walked her to my car. Jessica made sure she was buckled in and then got in the front. She was talking about Emma the whole time to me and I enjoyed it. We got to my house and brought her inside. We set her toys down.
“I didn’t know if you wanted to go to the little park near here or just hang out here.”
“That sounds nice…” I smiled. We left most of her toys here. Jessica had put Emma’s stroller in the back of my car so we got that out and buckled her in. Jessica looked at me. “Well…would you like to push or me?”
“I’ll try…” I pushed her down my driveway and we walked to the park, it wasn’t far at all. When we got there she got restless and Jessica told me to stop.
“I think she wants to be held for a bit…” I looked down at the crying baby. I didn’t say anything I just picked her up…VERY nervously and held her….now what do I do?
“Just rock her a little bit…try to sooth her.” Jessica reached over to me but I pulled back.
“I got it…I got it.” I gently rocked her and she continued to cry.
“Come bring her over here Nick.” Jessica walked over to the swing. “Sit.” She pointed to one of the swings and I rolled my eyes. I couldn’t believe I was doing this. I sat on the swing and held Emma in my arms. Jessica started to push us gently. Emma finally calmed down and was quiet. I looked down and saw her sleeping against my chest. I smiled and Jessica came in front of me. “See, you’re a natural Nick.” I laughed.
“I’m no so sure about that one.” I got up and we put Emma back in her stroller. I kept looking down at her. She was adorable. Jess and I walked over to the bench and I kept the stroller by my side. I reached for Jess’ hand and held it. She gave it a little squeeze and I smiled, I knew she wasn’t angry with me anymore. “Look…Iâ€⠢m sorry about how I acted before.” She looked at me.
“Its okay, I mean I did keep a big secret from you.”
“Yeah but I care about you and I should’ve been supportive and I just yelled at you. So…I’m sorry.” She leaned over and kissed me. I kissed her back and then pulled away.
“Apology accepted.” I laughed and kissed her again.
“I want to be there for both of you. Whatever you need, I want to be there okay?” She nodded and leaned her head against my shoulder. I looked at her and down at the sleeping baby and couldn’t believe the resemblance in the two. They looked so much like each other. We stayed there for a while and then took Emma back to my house. When we got there it was a little after 4 and she was hungry. Jessica handed me the bottle and I looked at her frightened. “I um…I dunno what to do.” She laughed at me and sat me at the dining room table. I held Emma in my arms and Jessica showed me how to feed her. Once I got the hang of it, it was pretty easy. I finished feeding her and then we brought her into the living room and played with her toys. She was starting to crawl all over the place and Jess had to chase after her. At 8 Jessica put her in her carrier.
“I have to bring her home and get her to bed.” I nodded knowing she had to leave. I grabbed my keys and picked the carrier up. I buckled her in the back and opened Jess’ door for her. I got in and drove her home. I carried the baby in the house and Jess showed me the way to her nursery, I brought her up and Jess helped me change her into her pajamas. They were so cute; they were light pink and had little sheep all over them. We both laid her down in her crib and Jessica gave her a kiss goodnight.
“I love you princess.” She whispered and then I walked over and kissed her forehead.
“Goodnight Emmy, I had fun with you and your mommy tonight.” I kissed her one more time and Jess and I walked out of the nursery and into her room.

Jessica’s POV

We walked into my room. Today was perfect, I had so much fun. We laid on my bed and he held me. He kept running his hands through my hair and I closed my eyes and just enjoyed being around him. He smelled so good. I kept thinking about him and I and what was still to come for us. His voice took me out of my thoughts.
“Jess?” I lifted my head to look at him.
“Yeah…?†He looked at me and smiled.
“What happened with you and Emma’s dad?”
“I told you Nick, I got pregnant and he left me.”
“I know…but I mean how did you know him?” I sat up and stayed in his arms.
“I dated for from freshman year til my sophomore year. He left me during my sophomore year. I got pregnant with Emma in December of my sophomore year; she was born September of Junior year. And I was out for only a month, now I’m back and I have a month left of school.”
“Oh…”
“I grew up with him, he was my best friend.”
“I’m sorry…”
“It’s not your fault baby.” I kissed him and he kissed me back. “It’s all better because now I have you.” I smiled and kissed him deeper.
“That you do. And I’m not going to go anywhere.” I pulled back and looked at him.
“How long do you think we’ll last Nick?” He looked at me confused.
“What do you mean?”
“Well I’m 17, and you’re 22…”
“Jess we went through that already.”
“I know but I mean you’re gonna meet so many girls and they’ll be your age.”
“But I’m not going to want to be with them because I have you and I have Emma. I’m in this for the long run Jessica. I’m not going that easily.” I smiled and kissed him.
“I don’t’ want to lose you Nick.”
“Well you’re not going to.” He kissed me deeper and rolled over so he was leaning over me. “I promise.” I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck to pull him down to me. We started making out and were completely oblivious to the others in my house. I took Nick’s shirt off and saw his chest, I melted. He was so handsome, and built. That’s as far as we got though, my mama walked in and Nick pulled away from me.
“I’m sorry…” My mama started to walk away.
“Its okay mama…Nick has to leave anyways.” I got off the bed and straightened my clothes out and helped Nick with his shirt. I smiled and walked him downstairs to the door.
“Goodnight baby…” He leaned over and kissed me.
“Night, I have to go to church tomorrow…I didn’t know if you wanted to come but if you do we have to leave my house by 8:45.”
“I’ll be here.” I smiled this time, kissed him quick and watched him leave. I went up to bed after checking on the baby and fell asleep quick. My mama woke me in the morning; I fed Emma, dressed her for church and then got myself ready. At 8:30 I heard the bell ring and walked down with Emma. Mama was busy talking to Nick and he saw me and smiled.
“You didn’t think I was going to show up did you?” I laughed and brought the baby down with me. He reached for her. I handed Emma to him and she smiled and him. I smiled and kissed his cheek.
“I didn’t not think it no…” I laughed and confused both him and me. We got Emma ready in her carrier and then mama called Ashlee and daddy down and we all hopped in and left. Nick and I sat next to each other during the service, Emma sat on my lap at the beginning but then she got restless and Nick took her from me and she quieted. He sat there with her on his lap and she was quiet the rest of the service. When church was over we all went out to brunch and Nick sat there and fed Emma, I had to keep looking at them, they were so cute and he was so good to her. I was falling in love with him, and I think Emma already had. I giggled when he tried giving her a high five. We all went home and Nick and I went into the family room to play with Emma. We ended up playing in there with her for a couple hours and then we watched TV with her in Nick’s lap. I looked over halfway through the television show and saw Nick and Emma sleeping peacefully, Emma was lying on his chest and he was holding her protectively. I kissed his cheek and then hers and leaned my head on his shoulder, I laid one of my hands over the one he had holding Emma and I fell asleep.

“Come on Jessica…they’ll love you! I promise…” She shook her head at me. “Jessica Ann Simpson!” She giggled and picked Emma up.
“Nicholas Scott Lachey….NO!” She handed her over to me and I fed her. This was becoming a regular thing now, she’d spend hours after school with me at my house and she’d always bring Emma around. Some day’s Tina would keep her and Jess and I would hang out around my house, I’d make her dinner or something.
“Jessica, I told them I was bringing someone special…please! I’ve told them ALL about you, they’re dying to meet you.” She rolled her eyes at me. It was half truth.
“Nick, I am not flying to Cincinnati to meet your parent’s they’ll hate me!” I finished feeding Emma and put her in the playpen we’d set up in my living room.
“They won’t. Like I said they know everything about you.” Kinda…except the baby part. She sat there thinking and I lifted her up into my arms. “Please…baby.â⠬ She looked at me and smiled a little.
“Fine! But I need to see if mama will mind watching Emma for the week.”
“Don’t worry, we’ll bring her with us.” She looked at me shocked.
“You mean they know about her?” I looked at her for a minute.
“Well…no, I wanted to tell them in person you know when we get there.”
“Nicholas…†
“It’ll be fine.” She sighed and I kissed her to let her know it would be okay. “Great, pack your things tonight, we’re leaving tomorrow afternoon. It’s memorial day, you’ve got a 4 day weekend starting tomorrow and we’re flying out to see them, they’re going to have a huge barbeque too.”
“Oh goody.” She said sarcastically. I laughed at her and picked her up.
“Aren’t we the funny one tonight.” She giggled and we sat on the couch watching TV for a little while before she decided she needed to head home. I walked her and Emma out to her new car…I got her a little “early graduation” Mercedes for a gift.
“I’ll pick you up at 7am sharp.” She had Emma in and ready to go.
“7AM! Are you crazy?” I laughed and kissed her.
“Crazy about you.” She shoved me playfully and kissed me one more time before pulling out of the driveway.

Jessica’s POV

I cannot believe he got me to agree to this. Here I am 17 and about to meet some 22 year old guy’s parents. I was nervous. Emma was sleeping in Nick’s lap and I was holding his hand. The flight wasn’t too long and when we landed I reached for Emma.
”Let me take her so they don’t notice her when they get here.”
“Jess, they know I’m bringing my girlfriend, they know I’m in a serious relationship, they’ll figure it out with you right next to me.”
“Just give her to me.” He handed Emma over to me and I held onto her. I walked closely behind Nick and as we got off the terminal I immediately saw him walking over to his parents…well I [arse]umed they were his parents. They walked over and hugged him; the woman who I’m guessing is his mother looked a lot like him.
“Hey mom…hey dad.” His dad hugged him and I stood in the back a little. I wasn’t there for long when his mom came over to me. She looked at me and smiled but I could see a little worry in her eyes.
“Nicholas, who is this?” She asked, Nick pulled away.
“Mom…dad†¦this is my girlfriend, Jessica.” He walked over to me and wrapped his arm around me. “And her daughter…Emma.” I looked at both his mom and dad nervously. Then I saw Emma reaching out for Nick and laughing. Nick smiled and took Emma from my arms.
“Jessica…this is my dad John, and my mother Cate.” I smiled and reached a hand out.
“Its nice to meet you, Nick has talked about you both very much.” Cate smiled at me and John nodded his head. We all started walking down the terminal and over to baggage claim. Emma’s shoe was falling off while Nick was playing with her in his arms. I reached over and took it off.
“Baby, her shoes are falling off. Hang on let me get the other one.” He stopped and I grabbed her other shoe. I turned and out of the corner of my eye saw Cate and John both smiling at me adoringly. We grabbed out luggage and Nick strapped Emma in the back, I sat on one side of her and Nick sat on the other side of her. We were all quiet until Cate spoke up.
“So Jessica…how old is Emma?” I looked up.
“She’s 9 months, she’ll be a year in September.” Just then Emma made a silly baby noise and Nick looked down and laughed at her.
“You’re so silly Emmy, yes you’re so silly.” He tickled her tummy and I laughed. Cate was looking back at Nick and smiling. We pulled up to a simple little light blue house and John helped with our things, I took Emma and Nick took her stuff.
“Baby I’m tired.” I whispered to Nick. He took my hand.
“Ma, I’m going to take Jess up stairs so she can take a nap, she’s tired.” Cate came out into the stairway.
“Okay…would you like me to take Emma?” Nick turned to me and I nodded. Cate held her and immediately seemed to like her. “She’s beautiful Jessica.” I smiled.
“Thank you.” Nick walked me up to his bedroom and I laid down. He stayed with me until I was asleep.

Nick’s POV

I waited until Jess was asleep before going downstairs; I knew my mother and father were definitely going to have questions…lot’s of them. I saw them both in the living room playing with Emma. I walked over and mom handed her to me.
“So I guess we should talk?” I looked at them and they nodded their heads. I sat on the couch and Emma stayed in my arms, they both sat across from me. My mom was the first to speak.
“She’s a very nice girl.” I looked up. “I like her.” My dad nodded his head.
“You…you do?”
“Yes, she seems very sweet and very responsible.”
“You’re not mad at me? Or her?”
“Of course not. I like her very much. And that little girl in your arms is adorable, seems like she’s attached to you too.” I nodded my head.
“She’s my little angel. I just feel bad she had to be raised without a father for as long as she did. Not like she would’ve been better off with the jerk of a father she did have.” My parents looked at me. “He left her; he got her pregnant and left her. She’s 17, and she’s been raising this beautiful baby by herself, with her parent’s help. I couldn’t help but fall in love with her…both of them.” My mom looked at me and I myself couldn’t believe what I’d said…it was true though, I loved Jessica and Emma. “I should’ve told you about Emma sooner…I’m sorry I didn’t.” The shook their heads. My dad spoke for the first time.
“You just make sure you don’t hurt them, you’re 22 and she’s 17…just remember that Nick.” I nodded.
“I’d never hurt them.” We talked a little longer and then I fed Emma and my parents watched amazed I was doing it. I woke Jessica up a little before supper and put Emma down for her nap. Jessica and I went into the kitchen and mom and dad were busy getting dinner set.
“Dad…can I talk to you for a second? Maybe we could go shoot hoops or something.”
“Sure son…I’ll be back.” I kissed Jess and dad and I went in the front to play a little basketball. “What’s on your mind son?” I shot the ball into the basket.
“I’ve been thinking about Emma and Jess…”
“Yeah…what about them?” He dribbled the ball and I tried stealing it.
“I want to adopt her dad.” He stopped and dropped the ball.
“That’s a big step…are you sure?” I nodded. We walked to the swing on the porch.
“I’ve never been surer of anything in my life. I love them so much dad. And well Emma…she deserves a dad who is going to be there.”
“Exactly Nick, with your career how are you going to do that?”
“I’ll make it work dad.” He looked at me again and then patted my shoulder.
“Well, I’m proud of you son. You’ve found a girl, who although is very young, actually loves you and doesn’t want to just use you, and you’ve been very good to her daughter from what your mother and I have seen since you got here.” I smiled. “If it’s what you want, then I say talk to Jess.” I nodded.
“Thanks dad.” We played basketball until Jess called us in for dinner. I smiled and walked up to the porch to give her a kiss and hug.
“Eww…youâ€⠄¢re a sweaty boy!” She laughed and kissed me. We walked in the kitchen and all sat down to eat. After dinner Jess and I went upstairs to talk.
“Baby…” I called out to her while she was busy changing.
“Hang on Nicholas.” I went into the guest room next to mine and checked on Emma. Then I went back in my room and sat on my bed waiting for Jessica. When she came in my jaw dropped. She was wearing a very sexy nightgown.
“What did I do to deserve this?” She giggled and sat on my lap. I rested my hands on her waist and kissed her.
“You’re a special nice guy.”
“You do this for all special nice guys?” She giggled again.
“There aren’t many around so no I don’t.” She leaned forward.
“Baby…as much as I want to do this can we talk first?” She looked back sad.
“You don’t like it…? I knew it; I’m too fat and ugly. Having a baby will do that to you.” She started to get up and I pulled her back.
“Hey, hey, hey. Stop that! Get your cute butt back in my lap. You’re beautiful, I want to just not this second okay? Just let me talk to you first.” She nodded her head. “I was talking to dad earlier and I got to thinking…about us, and Emma and Emma and I.”
“What about us?”
“Jess…I wanted to know how you’d feel about me legally adopting her as my daughter. I know I’m not the best at being a father yet but I’ll learn.” I saw her smiling.
“You’d do that? For her?”
“And for you…” She kissed me. “I had to make sure you were okay with it.”
“It would mean the world to me, only if you’re sure you want to.”
“I am…I am.” She laughed and kissed me. I knew I had to tell her. “Jess, I…I love you.” I looked at her.
“I, I love you too Nicholas.” I smiled and wrapped my arms around her. I kissed her neck and slipped her nightgown down. She reached and took my shirt off and then my shorts. I kept kissing her body and laid her gently on the bed. I leaned so I was over her and I looked at her.
“You sure you’re ready?” She nodded and reached for me. I gently pulled myself to her and we made love for the first time. I made sure I was slow and gentle for her. She lay in my arms after and I held her close to me. I kissed her head. “I love you baby…”
“I love you too.” She whispered and closed her eyes. We fell asleep in each other’s arms. I knew the first thing I was going to do when I got back to California was see my lawyer so I could get the paperwork and make Emma my daughter legally.

Author: Jessie

Jessica’s POV

I couldn’t believe Nick wanted to adopt Emma. I hadn’t stopped smiling since he’d asked me. Emma was finally going to have a daddy now. I hopped out of bed; Nick was sleeping next to me. I smiled and kissed him, last night was the most amazing night of my life. I’d only had sex once before and I regretted it immediately. Last night with Nick it was my second time but I didn’t regret it. He made it so amazing and special for me. I got up and checked on Emma, she was sleeping soundly. I showered and got ready, then I went downstairs and Cate was cleaning up her breakfast. She turned when she head me enter.
“Good Morning Jessica.” I smiled and sat at the table.
”Morning Mrs. Lachey...” She poured me some orange juice and got me some toast. “Thank you…”
“Did you and Nick sleep well?” I smiled and blushed.
“Yeah, but Emma hasn’t woken to be fed yet, I was a little shocked…”
“Oh, she woke around six and I gave her a bottle, I hoped you wouldn’t mind. It’s just that she was crying and I checked on you and Nick but you were both sleeping and looked peaceful so I figured I’d feed her. That and the fact I wanted to practice my new grandmother skills.” I stopped eating and looked up with question. “John old me last night, and I figured since you two were happy and not fighting you were happy and agreed.”
“Oh John knew? I mean, Mr. Lachey knew?”
“He and Nick talked earlier last night.”
“Oh…” I put my plate and gl[arse] in the sink and Cate grabbed her purse.
“Ready to go?” I nodded.
“Let me grab my purse.” Cate wanted to take me to the mall today and go shopping. I walked into Nick’s room and shook Nick awake.
“Baby…baby, I’m going shopping with your mom. Emma is sleeping, I’ll be back later.” I kissed him and got up but he reached for my arm. “What…?†He wrapped the sheet around himself and went over to his wallet.
“Here baby…” He handed me his credit card. “If they give you problems tell them tough.” I giggled. “It’s Cincinnati though, you’ll be fine.” I smiled and took it. “I love you baby.” He kissed me and went back into his bed. “Have fun…” I smiled and went back downstairs. We left for the mall and it was around 10 when we did. When we got there she took me to Baby Gap. I ended up buying Emma so much stuff with Nick’s card. I got her 3 Flare Jeans, a pink top and 2 other tops to go with the jeans. I got her 3 pairs of shoes, a mini scarf and gloves; it wasn’t cold where we lived but when she came to visit her grandmother it would be. I got her a cute pink little hat and I bought her 2 very girly dresses. After going there we went to a few more baby shops where I bought her more clothes and then we stopped at the toy shop and I bought her a few toys. I stopped in at FYI and bought Nick’s newest CD. I giggled and Cate looked at me.
“Gotta help his sales, they’re doing amazing already.” She laughed and bought herself a copy too. I bought myself a few pairs of jeans and 2 cute tops, I stopped in Victoria’s Secret and bought some underwear, Cate was trying to embarr[arse] me by picking out all these pieces of lingerie.
“I bet you’d shock the hell outta Nicholas.” We giggled and I ended up buying 2 of the things she picked out.
“He’s gonna die Cate.” We walked out, Cate was pushing Emma’s stroller.
“At least he’ll die happy.” We laughed again and walked back to her car with TONS of bags. When we got in Nick and John were watching a Reds game on the TV. I asked Nick to come help me and he did.
“Geeze…do I have anything left on my card or no?” I laughed and kissed him. We had all the bags in the house and we were upstairs putting Emma down for her nap.
“Yes…but only a little.” He kissed me again and when Emma was asleep we walked downstairs and helped Cate start dinner; it was already 5:30. “Wow, we were gone a LONG time.” I looked at Cate and she nodded. We all sat down for supper and Nick and I got an early start to bed, I fed Emma first and then Nick and I fell asleep; our flight was for noon tomorrow. Cate made Nick and I breakfast the next morning and fed Emma while we ate. Her and John drove us to the airport and stayed with us until be boarded our plane. I slept on Nick’s shoulder the whole flight home; he held Emma in his arms. When we landed Nick put all our stuff in his car and I put Emma in the back. I kept thinking about our visit to see Nick’s parents. His mother seemed to love me but I wasn’t so sure about his father. He didn’t talk much to me and he didn’t seem to want to get to know me. He was very sweet and nice to me but it wasn’t many times he took the opportunity to talk to me. I got in the front and then Nick got in and started towards my house. I had to go home; I hadn’t seen my parent’s in a few days. We were quiet but finally I broke the silence. I turned to Nick and pulled my hand away that he was holding.
“Baby…I don’t think your dad likes me.” He looked at me.
“What…?†He reached for my hand again.
“Yeah…I dunno, I mean he didn’t seem to wanna talk to me much and when he did he was short with me and didn’t seem very interested in what I had to say. And he didn’t seem to like Emma or wanna get to know her. Maybe it’s just me…I dunno.” I looked back at Emma who was sleeping and then back in front of me at the cars.
“Baby…dad loves you, just like mom.” I shook my head.
“No, no, you’re mom I believe loves me, I love her too but your dad…he just didn’t seem it. I dunno, just forget it. Sorry for bringing it up.” I looked out my window.
“Are you sure…?” I nodded my head.
“Positive…† He pulled up to my house and got my bags and luggage out and I got Emma out when he stopped me.
“Jess…I was thinking; you go back to school tomorrow and you’ve had a long weekend, I have tomorrow off…maybe you need a nice night of sleep without Emma? I…I could watch her tonight for you…I mean if you want, after all…I am going to be her father I need a little practice.” I smiled and looked at Emma; she was awake and smiling now.
“Um…I need to get her some fresh clothes.” I handed Emma over to him and he took her. We walked in and he put Emma in her playpen then went back to get the rest of my things. I went upstairs and got Emma some clothes and toys. When I got back downstairs Nick was talking to mama and daddy and holding Emma. I smiled and walked in. “Mama, Nicholas is going to take Emma for the night.” My mama looked at me.
“We heard, and we also heard about him adopting her.” I nodded and sat next to him.
”It’s very sweet and kind of you son.” My dad spoke up.
“Thank you sir…” I got Emma ready to leave while they all chatted and then when she was ready I walked Nick out to his car with all Emma’s belongings. I let him buckle her in, and then I put her things in there and gave Nick a million directions before kissing him and watching him get in the car.
“I love you Nick and call me tonight and tomorrow when I get home from school.”
“Of course I will, I love you too sweetheart.” I kissed him one more time and he pulled out of the driveway. I walked back in the house and sat in the living room telling my mama and daddy all about my weekend with Nick and his parents. We cooked dinner and by then Ashlee was home from her friends. After dinner I went up and finished some of my homework. It was so quiet around the house. I sat there thinking and looked up at a picture of Nick and me on my nightstand. Then I thought back to our weekend and how we were always together at night and always together, just around each other and I missed it now that I was home and he wasn’t here with me. I always knew when he wasn’t around I at least had Emma to keep me busy and happy but even she isn’t here now. As I kept thinking about this it made me wanna live with him more and more but I knew him and my parent’s would never allow it. I finished up my algebra and closed the book thinking about how perfect living with Nick would be and I knew…I know it’d come true and it would happen…one day.

<span style="font-family:Optima">And Nick Makes 3… Part 6

Author: Jessica

Nick’s POV

I drove home and kept looking in the backseat to Emma. She was sleeping soundly and looked so cute. I was a little nervous about having her for the night but I figured everything would turn out just fine. I pulled into my driveway and got out of the car. I took Emma out of the back and grabbed her bags Jessica packed me with. I took her upstairs and opened the old guestroom…it was a nursery now. While I was in Cincy with Jess I hired some guys to do over this guestroom and turn it into Emma’s nursery…Jess had no idea. The room was light pink and had white trim. There was a nice white crib with light pink bedding to match the painted walls. All of the furniture matched and I had them put in a little white toy chest; full of toys of course. On the big wall of her room above the crib there were big cloth letters that spelled out “EMMA” in different colors. The floor was nice oak and beside the crib was a little white rug. I had the “Footprints Prayer” framed and matted on the wall by her changing bed. Her room definitely looked like it was fit for a princess…which is what Emma was.
“How about it Emma…?” I looked at the half awake half sleeping baby. “You like it? I think mommy is going to love it sweetheart.” I kissed her forehead and picked her up out of her carrier. I carried her over to her big white door closet. I opened it up and there had to be over 100 pairs of clothing and shoes/accessories. I went through and put a call into a few Hollywood stores before we left and they delivered them for me. Some were for now and some were for when she was a little older; around 1 or so. “I bet mommy’s going to be jealous now because you have more clothes then her.” Emma giggled and I tickled her tummy. It was around 7:30 now so I brought Emma downstairs and gave her a bottle. Then I put her in the playpen in the living room, made my dinner and ate it in the living room while I watched the basketball game. When I finished my dinner the Bearcats were up by 2 points and only 5 minutes to go. I picked Emma up and sat her on my lap.
“Okay Emmy…see the team in orange? That’s our favorite team, they’re winning by 2 points and what they have to do it bounce that orange ball there; it’s a basketball. And they have to shoot it in those net thingies.” I kept explaining the game to her knowing she had no clue what I was talking about and the Bearcat’s ended up winning by 6 points. “That was your first sports event…don’t worry there will be many more to come.” I laughed and saw her smiling at me. I looked over at the clock and saw the time…9pm. I got up and brought Emma upstairs. I put her in some of her new pink pajamas and then I read her a short book. I tucked her into her crib and kissed her goodnight. “I love you Emmy…sleep tight.” I looked at her one more time and walked out quietly after turning the light off. I walked downstairs and phone Jessica like I promised.
“Hello…?† I smiled at hearing her voice.
“Hey gorgeous…”
“Nick…! How’s the babysitting going?”
“Excellent, she loves me. I’m a whole lotta fun to be around.” She laughed at me.
“Did she eat? Have you changed her? Is she too cold? Is she too hot? Is she tired?” Jessica rambled off about a thousand things at once.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa…she’s fine baby. She had her bottle, I changed her before bed, she’s not too cold or too hot she’s just right and she is out like a light right now.” I heard Jessica breath a sigh of relief. “Like you doubted me?”
“I know baby, I trust you a 100% its just that this is your first time with her and my first time really being away from her and not having my parent’s watching her.” I nodded my head understanding.
“I know sweetheart but she’s fine, she’s happy. She and I watched the Bearcat’s play tonight.”
“Oh no…my poor baby.” I laughed at her.
“Anyways, I just wanted to call and say goodnight and I love you and I’ll pick you up at your house after school tomorrow around…3:30?”
“Sounds perfect and goodnight and I love you too.” She blew me a kiss through the phone and I sent one back to her and then we hung up. I turned the lights off and locked up the house then I went up, checked on a peacefully sleeping Emma and went into my own room. I got changed and ready for bed and fell asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night when Emma was crying and I turned to look at the clock; 3:18am. I sighed and got up and walked down to her room. She was in her crib wide awake and crying. I picked her up, checked her diaper…she was dry; tried feeding her…she wasn’t hungry. I rocked her back and forth and couldn’t get her back to sleep so I decided to try and bring her back to my room with me and I hopped back in bed, laid her on my chest and held her there while I closed my eyes. Her little hands were hanging onto the collar of my shirt and I opened my eyes when the crying stop…she was fast asleep. I smiled and held her close to me and fell asleep.

Jessica’s POV

For the first time in a long time I had a night where I could sleep through the entire night without having someone crying and waking me up. It was refreshing. I got up, got ready for school and actually got out on time today, usually before school I bathe Emma, dress and feed her and drop her off at daycare. I got to school and kept thinking about Nick, the teacher called on me and I had no idea what the question was…oops. At lunch Cacee and Cooper found me and we sat together.
“So how are you and Mr. Celeb?” Cacee asked me while I ate my salad. I smiled.
“Wonderful…heâ⠬™s adopting Emma.” Coop and Cacee’s jaws dropped.
“He is…?” I nodded.
“That is SO sweet…!”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah it is sweet but let’s get to the juicy info…” I looked at Cacee…
“Uh oh…”
“So how is he…?”
“Cacee!” Cooper screamed and I just laughed.
“Hey, maybe we haven’t yet…”
“Yeah riiight…” I laughed.
“He’s amazing…we’ve only done it once though so don’t get all hyped up.”
“When…? You didn’t tell your best friends?!”
“I’m appalled…” Cooper cut in.
“No, no…it was just this weekend…at his parent’s house in Cincinnati!” The two of them squealed and I laughed. We talked about Nick, Nick and more…Nick the entire lunch. Cacee had met him twice but Cooper had yet to meet him. The bell rang and we went to our cl[arse]es. The rest of the day was pretty boring as is all of school but I made it through the day and I drove home after it was over. I walked in the house and mom walked into the front hall.
“Hey sweetie…how was school…?” I threw my bag on the ground.
“Eh…school is school…” My mom laughed and I went upstairs. The phone rang and mom hollered for me.
“Jess…its Nicholas!” I picked up the phone and smiled.
“Hey…”
“Hey you…how was school?” I sighed and rolled my eyes.
“Ugh…if another person asks…I swear.” We laughed. “I mean it is school it’s not supposed to be fun! So how was my girl?”
“She’s been an angel all day.” I smiled. “Wanna come over tonight for dinner?”
“Sure…let me finish this dumb English Lit crap and then I’ll be over so about an hour give or take…”
“Okay baby I’ll see ya in a little bit. Love you…”
“Love you too baby…” I hung up and worked on my English Lit. When I was done I grabbed myself a change of clothes and also changed out of my school clothes. I know I’m not supposed to stay the night but oh well, I wanted to tonight and if they wanted to get mad then who cares. I grabbed my school books and backpack and said bye to mom and dad and Ash then I drove over to Nick’s. I pulled up to his house, parked next to his Escalade and went up to the door. I knocked on the door and Nick opened it and was standing there with Emma in his arms. She was wearing the cutest mini Bearcat’s jersey and pants.
“Cute Nick…real cute...” We laughed and I gave her a kiss, then I leaned over and gave him a kiss. I walked into the house and threw my bags on his living room couch.
“How long you planning to stay…? A month…” I stuck my tongue out and he laughed.
“I was gonna stay over tonight so I had to bring my backpack and clothes for tomorrow, unless you don’t’ want me to stay over…”
“No, no…of course I do…are you sure your parent’s don’t care…?” I shrugged my shoulders.
“So what if they do…?”
“I feel like staying here…” I wrapped my arms around his waist. “With you…” I kissed him and he pulled away.
“Hey…I have to show you something…bring your stuff with you.” I grabbed my bags and followed him upstairs. “First, throw your things in my bedroom.” He opened the door to a HUMUNGOUS bedroom…you wouldn’t believe the size of it…really. Then he led me down the hall to another door. “Look…this is Emmy’s room.” I looked at him with question because I knew she didn’t have a room. He opened the door and my jaw just dropped. This room looked like a room out of a fairytale. It was beautiful.
“You did this…?” He nodded his head and I smiled. I leapt into his arms, being careful of Emma and I kissed his neck. “Baby…I love you so much.”
“I love you too…and Emma and I wanted her to have her own room.” I had happy tears in my eyes and he gave me a tour of the entire room. Afterwards we laid Emma down for a nap and went downstairs in the living room to talk and just hang out. We cherished every quiet opportunity we had. Nick grabbed him and I some wine and then sat next to me on the couch.
“So really…how was your day?”
“Eh…it was alright, my friends keep asking all about you.” He laughed and sipped his wine. “So she was alright for you?” He nodded.
“She was perfect, we really had fun.” I smiled glad they had a good time.
“Good…Iâ€⠢m glad it went okay.” Him and I talked and then ended up making out. I pulled away trying to breath.
“Baby…” He leaned forward and kissed me again, he scooped me up and carried me into his bedroom. As soon as we were stripped down to nothing Emma started to cry. Nick and I sighed and he grabbed his pants and put them on. I waited there and heard him talking to Emma; soon she was quiet and walked back into the bedroom. “Is she okay…?” He nodded.
“She’s fine…now where were we?” I smiled and he moved on top of me.
“Somewhere around…here…â₠ I kept kissing him and giggled. We made love but didn’t get to lay around much afterwards…Emma was crying again so I got Nick’s t-shirt slipped it on and walked into her room. I checked her diaper and changed her. I looked at the clock and it was 6:30 so I went and got Nick and he and I cooked dinner; I fed Emma her bottle and put her in her playpen. While she was playing with her toys Nick and I enjoyed and semi romantic meal in the dining room. We laid around with Emma that night on the couch and ended up falling asleep there. Nick woke up around 1 and picked Emma and I up. He brought me into his room and tucked me in before taking Emma into her room and getting her into bed. He came back in and I turned over to face him. He held me close to him; I rested my head on his chest and closed my eyes.
“Mmmm...Love you Nick.” I felt him kissed my head.
“Love you too baby…” We fell asleep together and it was the best night sleep I’d ever had.

Author: Jessie

~*Jessica’s POV*~

I woke up in Nick’s arms the next morning. I turned to see the clock and it was 6:00. I had to be at school in an hour. I shook Nick awake and he smiled and kissed me.
“Baby we have to get up. I need to be in school in an hour.” He kissed me one more time and we both got up. I jumped in the shower and he went to take care of Emma. When I got out it was 6:30 and I quickly dressed into my uniform from the day before. I grabbed my backpack and untouched homework. I was screwed; I did some of it before I came over last night but not all of it. I ran down the stairs; Emma was dressed and Nick was in his sweats minus a shirt feeding her.
“Morning baby…” I smiled and kissed him before kissing Emma.
“Morning…hey princess…” Emma giggled and I made myself some toast and a gl[arse] of orange juice.
“We almost ready to go…?” I looked at him.
“What…?â€Â
“For school…”
“Nick you can’t drop me off, we don’t have enough time for you to shower.”
“I know…I’ll throw on jeans and a tee. Nobody is going to see me.”
“I’ll just drive myself.”
“No…here†¦you two get in the car and I’ll be down in 5 minutes.” He had me out the door before I could object. I buckled Emma in the back of Nick’s Escalade. ‘I hope we’re taking this and not his BMW because I’m not putting the car seat in there.’ I thought to myself.
“Your daddy is silly, you know that Em…?” I tickled her tummy and she laughed. I froze and smiled; ‘daddy.’ The term fit so perfectly too…it just felt right. I got in the p[arse]enger’s seat and Nick was walking over to the driver’s side. He got in and kissed me before pulling out of the driveway. He held my hand the entire drive to school. When we got there I saw Cacee, Coop and Steph hanging out on the front steps…probably waiting for me. They saw me and walked over. I got out and Nick stayed sitting. I left the door open though and stood in front of it.
“Hey guys…!” The three of them smiled. Cacee had met Nick but Coop and Steph hadn’t.
“Hey Nick…” Cacee smiled and waved.
“Hey Cacee…hello ladies...” Coop and Steph giggled.
“Jess he is hot…” I laughed and saw Nick blush. We talked only for a few minutes; it was 7am and homeroom bell rang at 7:07.
“Okay guys, we have to go…” I got back in the car and leaned over to Nick. “I love you…” I kissed him and pulled away before kissing him two more times.
“I love you too baby…” I saw looks from the girls when I turned away. I opened the backseat door and kissed Emma.
“I love you…have fun today.” I looked at Nick. “Are you sure you don’t mind watching her again?”
“I promise, I don’t mind…I’m excited too, now have a good day.” I rolled my eyes, grabbed my backpack and closed the door. “Oh Jess…” I turned and opened the p[arse]enger door.
“Yeah…?†He took his wallet and gave me a 10 dollar bill.
“For lunch…”
“10 dollars…?”
“Enjoy it…now go…” I smiled and put the money in my new Louis Vuittion bag Nick bought me…I waved and we walked into the school, stopped at our lockers and then headed to homeroom.

~*End POV*~

Tina woke up that morning and check on her daughter but she wasn’t there. Knowing exactly who she was with, she dialed Nick’s number but got the answer machine. Finally after trying different places she called the school to let them know Jessica would be out and to excuse her.
“Are you sure she’s out Mrs. Simpson…? I saw her walking into homeroom with 3 girls.” Tina drew a sigh of relief; at least she knew where she was.
“Oh okay…thank you…” She hung up and saw Joe sitting at the table.
“She didn’t come home did she?” Tina didn’t have to say anything and it was more a statement then a question. “Jesus Tina…!” He shouted. “I think we’ve been pretty damn fair about her dating a man his age, I mean she’s a girl and he’s an adult, we are even pretty fair about her sleeping over his house on the weekends but school nights are out of the question!” Tina looked at Joe…
“Joe, at least she went to school…she didn’t just skip. Easily he could’ve called the school and call in her absence but instead he got her there.”
“I don’t care Tina! They’re sleeping together…! Why the hell else would she spend a school night there?”
“Be serious Joe! Maybe they fell asleep or were up late with Emma. Just because she spent the night does not mean--…”
“They’re sleeping together…!” Joe interrupted.
“So what if they are…?! What is it to us Joe…? She’s going to be 18 in 2 months; we can’t stop her from having sex with somebody IF she even is!”
“I don’t want another grandchild now…!”
“Joe grow up! You’ve got one now, she can’t take that back and I’m not sure she’d even want to. At least she’s with a man who respects her and her daughter which is going to be THEIR daughter. He loves her and he’ll support her. Most importantly she loves him back.”
“That’s a bunch of [bad word] Tina! You can’t fall in love at 18!”
“Oh really…? Then why the hell did you and I get married when we were 18 Joe, for the hell of it…? To make the most of a boring day...? Tell me…”
“Never mind us, this is about Jessica.”
“Well I’m thorough with this argument…” Tina started to walk away. “She is growing up Joe…get over it and get used to it.” She walked upstairs and into Jessica’s room where she folded her and Emma’s clothes and cleaned both bedrooms. She knew it; deep in her heart…she’d always help Jessica and do everything—anything for her.

~*Nick’s POV*~

After dropping Jess off I went home and showered and dressed. I went into the living room and grabbed the papers Jessica, myself and her parent’s had gone through and signed from the courts. I brought them down to my lawyer’s office and he told me in a week or two Emma would LEGALLY be a Lachey. I smiled and left the lawyer’s office. My manager had called me earlier while I was in the shower and left me a message telling me to meet him down at “Center Stage” studio, so I brought Emma with me all the female dancers for my new video went running over to her. I smiled and kept an eye on her the entire time I rehearsed. When the girls were rehearsing with me my manager stayed with Emma. At 2:30 I left to pick Jess up at school, she was waiting for me with her friends. She said by to them and hopped into the car giving me a kiss before waving to her friends.
“How was school…?” I reached for her hand and pulled out of the school parking lot. She didn’t answer me she just gave me a “get serious” look and I laughed.
“How was your day…?” She looked at me.
“Great…Emma and I dropped off the adoption papers…”
“And…?”
“2 weeks at the most…” Jessica squealed and I laughed.
“I’m so excited…!”
“Me too baby…then I had to go to Center Stage and work. The girls down there love Emma.”
“Girls…?†
“The dancers…”
“Nicholas I don’t want stripper’s around my daughter.” I laughed.
“Strippers…? Jessica they are not strippers.”
“Nick, I’ve seen what they look like you showed me. I don’t want them around her.” I sighed and just changed the subject.
“Hey…youâ€⠄¢re coming with me to the USO concert next week right?” She looked at me nervous. “Jessie…donâ₠™t be nervous…”
“I know baby…okay I’ll go…”
“Good…Iâ€⠢ll even give you my card to buy something pretty and new.”
“Oh…lucky ducky me...” We laughed and stayed quiet till we got to a street light. I stopped and looked at her.
“I’ve been thinking about something else too…”
“What is it baby…?” I was a little scared to ask her but I went ahead with it.
“Well…you and I love each other and we’re pretty serious and I am going to adopt Emma…I thought maybe you know we could…live together kinda…you know?” The light turned green and I accelerated…she was quiet. “Jessie…? I’m sorry; it was stupid of me to even think—…† She interrupted me.
“No…no… Nick I’d love to live together but do you think my parent’s would allow it?”
“Well…I don’t know but I mean I thought I’d ask to see if you even wanted to before we asked them…you know…?” She nodded and I pulled up beside her house in the driveway.
“Yeah…Nick you don’t even have to ask me such a silly question…of course I want to move in with you.” She smiled and I smiled. I leaned over and kissed her. Finally she pulled back and kissed me one more time before getting out. I got out too and helped her get Emma out. I kissed the both of them goodbye.
“Call me later baby…” I kissed her again.
“I will…” And I waited till she was inside before pulling out of the driveway.

~*Jessica’s POV*~

I walked into the house and couldn’t stop smiling. I put Emma in her playpen and my bag on the ground.
“Mama…!†I yelled for her.
“I’m in the kitchen…” I walked in and saw her cooking. “So you have a good night?” She grinned and I sat down at the table blushing.
“Yes I did…mama he is the best. He’s so sweet and caring and I dunno…I just love him.” She sat next to me. “Mama…he asked me to move in with him.” I looked at her and she was quiet for a minute.
“What did you tell him…?”
“That I needed to talk to you and daddy first but mama I really want to…”
“Well I am sure you do but you’re right you need to let daddy and I talk about this.” I sighed and got up. “Jessica…† She called me back and I looked at her.
“Yeah mama…”
“I’ve got your side you know…” I smiled and hugged her before going to work on my homework. I stayed up there and when daddy got home I walked into the hall and listened to him…he sounded angry but calmed down and him and mama were talking. I heard daddy coming closer and went back into my room.
“Jessica…† I came down.
“Yeah daddy…”
“Come on down here…” I walked down and held my breath. I picked Emma up and heard them tell Ashlee to go upstairs and put Emma in her crib while she was up there. I thanked Ashlee and sat down on the couch across from them.
“Your father and I talked about it like we said we would.” I nodded.
“First of all young lady I don’t appreciate you going off and not even calling us to tell us you won’t be home.”
“I know daddy and I’m sorry…” Mama interjected before daddy could say anything more.
“We’ve agreed you two can live together.” I smiled so much and then I heard her… “But…” Uh oh…that’s never good. “Until you graduate high school you two are to live in this house. If Nick can agree to that he is more the welcome to live with us.” I frowned but tried not to show it…the only way I could get Nick to live with me would for him to LITERALLY live with me in this house not our own house. I sat there and thought about it…living here with my parents? How would that go? How would it work…and would Nick agree to it?

<span style="font-family:Optima">And Nick Makes 3… Part 8

Author: Jessie

~*Jessica’s POV*~

I looked at them.
“He has that huge house though mama…”
“Well then he’ll just have to stay in it if you and Emma aren’t worth living here and not in that house.” I nodded…he’d just had the nursery for Emma done at his home too. “You can go call him now if you want to.” I ran up to my room and instead of calling him did my homework. At 5 I got Emma and told mom I’d be home soon. I raced out the door and drove to Nick’s house. When I got there I walked in and he was sitting at the kitchen table eating a sandwich and watching some sports thingy. He heard me and turned, I smiled and he got up and smiled too. He hugged me and then took Emma.
“Hey you…” He tickled her and laughed. I smiled and he kissed me before putting Emma in her playpen. “What brings you by my love…?” I wrapped my arms around his neck and his went around my waist.
“I have good or bad news…”
“What do you mean *or*…?”
“Well you can look at it two ways…”
“Okay…”
“My mama and daddy talked about you and me living together…”
“Uh oh…” He pulled away from me and sat at the table. I walked over and sat on his lap.
“Hey now…wait a minute…they agreed that the two of us and Emma could live together…” Before I could explain further he kissed me but I pulled back. “Hang on…here is the part you might not like.”
“What…”
“The only condition of us living together is that we have to live at my home with my parent’s BUT only until I graduate.” I looked at him.
“So we live in your house…with your parent’s?” I nodded.
“Is that okay…?”
“I dunno…I mean yeah because I want to live with you so bad but I’m 23 almost Jessica…living with the parent’s isn’t something I thought I’d be doing.”
“I know that Nick and I tried a different way but right now they will only agree to this way. It is up to you Nick…if you don’t want to I understand…” He kissed my hand.
“Hey, none of that…you know I wanna live with you.” He kissed me. “When do I move in?” I smiled and hugged him tight.
“You’ll really do it?”
“Of course…”
“What about this house…and the nursery you just did it?”
“Living with you would be more important…and Emma….we’re really going to do this?” I laughed and hugged him again.
“Yeah…we are…” He kissed me and I pulled away smiling.

~*2 Weeks Later*~

*Nick’s POV*

I carried up the last box and put it on the floor by Jessica’s bed…by our bed…*our* bed. I smiled and walked downstairs where Jessica was helping her mom cook supper.
“Hey baby…” She smiled and walked over to kiss me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her back.
“Hey you…”
“Hey Nick…all done?” I looked at Tina.
“Yeah, just put the last box up in Jessica’s room…”
“Excuse me…in our room Nicholas.” I laughed and helped set the table.
“Right…in our room…sorry honey…” I finished setting the table and Ashlee and Joe walked in the front door.
“Dinnnerrr….â₠¬Â Ashlee came running in and took her seat at the table. She saw me and got up. She hugged me tight and then sat back down. “Nick’s here…!”
“Ashlee Nick is living here now…” Jessica interjected and we all sat at the table. Joe barely spoke a word to me. He spoke to Tina and Jess and Ashlee but very little was said to me. After dinner I helped Jessica feed Emma and we bathed her before playing with her and then putting her to bed. Jessica and I watched a little TV in the family room before heading up to bed. There were boxes all around the room but it wouldn’t take long for me to find a place for everything. Her room was huge…we hopped up into bed and I held her while she curled her arms around me and laid her head on my chest. I didn’t fall asleep as quickly as she did…I stayed awake thinking about what I was going to do with the house, the brand new nursery…I didn’t mind having to give it up because it meant I got to live with Jessica and Emma but I wish I didn’t have to give it up at the same time…a part of me does at least. The next week I spent settling in. Jessica in school and I was home with Tina and Emma during the day. Thursday I’d finally had my stuff all put in a place and I spent the better half of the afternoon playing with Emma. As soon as Jessica got home we were going to go shopping for an outfit for the USO which was tomorrow. I knew she was still nervous but I tried to make her feel more clam about it. I heard her coming through the door and I walked into the hall and kissed her.
“Hey you…” She smiled.
“Hey…”
“Ready to shop…?”
“When am I NOT ready?” I laughed…this was very true. I gathered Emma and handed her to Jess and said goodbye to Tina before heading for the mall. 3 hours and 7 stores later Jessica finally found an outfit she liked. It was simple…a nice red knit shirt with white stripes and a pair of jean pants. Of course she insisted she needed new shoes for this outfit so we had to go buy her a nice pair of stiletto heel shoes. Around 8 we stopped at the food court. I fed Emma her bottle while Jessica finished eating and then we headed home. Emma fell asleep in the car so I brought her up to bed while Jessica showed her mom her new outfit. I got into bed and rolled over falling asleep…I had a busy day tomorrow. I heard Jess walk in a little later and she curled up beside me in bed falling asleep. Jessica stayed home the next day from school and got herself all dolled up for the night. Her mother did her hair, she curled it and gave it nice wave and left it flowing across her shoulders. Her mom also did her makeup but applied very little. I on the other hand spent the day on the stage rehearsing. I went home and showered, changed and got myself ready picked Jess up and we headed back down to where I’d spent my day. Jessica held tightly to me the entire night except for when I was on stage. A few people came and asked her questions but she handled it well and smiled to everyone. It was finally over around 1am…it lasted a lot longer than anticipated and Jessica fell asleep in the limo on the way home. Two weeks later I was home with Emma and Tina and I was upstairs playing with Emma when she called me down. I put Emma in her playpen and went downstairs where Tina was at the table.
“Here Nick, from your lawyer it came in today’s mail.” I smiled.
“Thanks…† I opened it and saw the paperwork…I looked at Tina and she knew exactly what it was. She smiled and hugged me then I ran up to get Emma…my daughter…*my* daughter. I hugged her and kissed her forehead. “I love you so much princess…” I put her down for her nap and then grabbed my cell phone to call my parents.
“Hello…†I heard my mother’s voice.
“Hey mom…how are you?”
“Nick…!†She sounded surprised to be hearing from me. “I’m okay, how are things with you and Jessica?” I smiled.
“Excellent…thatâ⠂¬â„¢s actually why I called you…”
“Oh…I have something to tell you too Nicholas…”
“Okay well how about you go first.” There was silence over the phone for a minute.
“Well Nicholas…your father and I…we’re getting a divorce Nick, Drew doesn’t know yet he’s supposed to come visit the end of the week we’re going to tell him then.” I was numb…a divorce? I tried speaking and couldn’t. “Nicholas…?â₠ I shook myself to reality.
“Uh…yeah†¦I’m sorry to um…I’m sorry mom. Are you okay…?”
“I’ll make it; I’m hanging in…are you okay?”
“Of course….yeah…Iâ⠬™m okay…”
“What did you have to tell me Nicholas?”
“Oh um…it…itâ€⠢s nothing, just wanted to tell you Jess came with me to the USO concert a few weeks ago…that’s all.”
“Oh well…that’s, that’s nice. I’m glad you two are doing well.”
“Uh yeah…me, me too…I have to go pick her up now. I’ll call you later. Call if you need me okay…?”
“Thanks Nick…tell Jessica I said hello…”
“Sure thing mom…love you, bye…”
“Love you too Nicholas…bye…â₠¬Â I hung up and thought to myself; ‘that is the most uncomfortable and weirdest conversation I’ve ever had with my mother.’ I sat on the edge of our bed and put my head in my hands as a few tears flowed down my face. I didn’t know what I was supposed to think: my mom and dad were getting a divorce? How was I supposed to react? I heard the front door opening followed by Jessica greeting her mother then her footsteps on the stairs. I wiped my eyes and stood. I grabbed the letters from the lawyer I’d gotten earlier in the mail and put a smile on my face. She pushed open the door and threw her bag on the floor and walked over to me, wrapping her arms around my neck.
“I’m so glad this day is done! It was not a great day.” She kissed me and fell back onto the bed.
“I’m sorry baby…”
“It’s okay, you’re here so it just got better.” I tried smiling and sat next to her.
“Well maybe this will make it better…” I handed the paper to her and watched her read it and smile. She threw her arms around me and I pulled her into my lap.
“Nick…! Baby I love you…!” She kissed me a million times before looking at me and smiling again. “My day is much better now! We have to go out and celebrate, we can go out to dinner!” I nodded and did my best to look happy. I mean I was happy over Emma but I couldn’t be happy because of my parent’s. “I love you so much. I’m going to talk to mama about dinner.”
“Okay…I love you too…” I kissed her head and watched her race downstairs to tell Tina…she was so happy. I wanted to join in on it with her but…I just, I couldn’t. I walked into Emma’s room and saw her playing with a toy in her crib. I smiled, she is such an angel and I picked her up. Jessica came back upstairs as I was walking out of Emma’s room.
“Hey…weâ€⠢re going out tonight. Tony Roma’s at 6:30…” She reached for Emma and kissed her. “Did you and daddy have fun today?” Emma let out a baby laugh and Jessica smiled. She handed Emma back to me and we walked into our bedroom. “You okay…you’ve been kinda quiet.” I nodded.
“Yeah, I’m just tired.”
“Oh, okay…” She kissed me and I wrapped my arms around her but kept a careful hold on Emma. She got up and worked on her homework for a while; I helped when she needed it and kept Emma busy. We left around 6:15; Tina, Joe and Ashlee drove separately from Jess, Emma and me. Jessica kept her arms on me all night. Normally I wouldn’t mind but tonight I just felt blah…we ordered our meal and Tina made a toast to me and Jessica. I tapped gl[arse]es and took a sip of my beer before putting it down. I picked at my food a little and fed Emma hers. Jessica tapped my leg and I looked at her.
“Are you okay Nicky…?”
“Yeah…” I faked a smiled and kissed her.
“Baby…are you sure you’re okay? I’m here to talk to, don’t keep something hurting you away from me.” I just looked at her and pushed her away from me. I finished feeding Emma.
“I am fine Jessica…” I could hear her sigh and we didn’t talk the rest of dinner. The drive home was dead silence except for Emma who made a baby noise now and then. I pulled into the driveway and Jessica walked right into the house she was definitely pissed at me. I got Emma out of the back and brought her into the house. I changed her into her pajamas and put her to bed.
“Goodnight princess, I love you…” I kissed her and turned the little light on before walking out. I sat in our room watching TV the entire evening. I could hear Jessica talking downstairs. She came up at one point to grab her bag and finish her work downstairs. We didn’t say anything but I saw tears in her eyes; she had been crying. Finally, around 9:30 she came up and I was already ready and in bed. She got herself ready and hopped into bed next to me. I tried wrapping my arms around her but pulled away when I heard her crying. I pulled her into my arms and kissed her head.
“What’s wrong…?” She buried her head into my chest.
“I didn’t know you didn’t want to adopt Emma.” I pulled away back.
“What…who said I didn’t? I wanted to and baby I’m so happy I did.”
“Nobody said it but you just seem thrilled to be a new dad finally.” She was being sarcastic.
“Jessica I am sorry about tonight. It wasn’t about you or Emma, you don’t know how happy I am. I love both of you so much. Please don’t think it was me unhappy with Emma.” She continued to cry.
“You’re happy then…?”
“Of course I am…” I kissed her head.
“Well I’m still upset you can’t come to me and tell me you’re hurting when I know you are. You don’t come to me for help but that’s what I’m here for.” I hugged her.
“I know baby, I’m sorry. I have to open up to you more and I know that I’m sorry.” I hugged her and kissed her again.
“Now will you please tell me why you’re hurting…? I want to help.” I sighed and held her tight.
“I called mom to tell her and dad about Em because I was so excited and before I could tell her she had something to tell me.”
“And…?” I held my breath and spoke up again.
“My father and my mother are getting a…a um…a di…a divorce.” I whispered it finally and heard Jessica gasp quietly before hugging me tight; I kept my head on her shoulder this time and let a few tears fall as I cried.

<span style="font-family:Optima">And Nick Makes 3 Chapter 9

A/N: I know it’s been a long time and I apologize but here you go! Don’t forget to send me some feedback!

~*Jessica’s POV*~

I didn’t know what to do for Nick so I just wrapped my arms around him tight and hugged him. I didn’t know what to say, I know how close he is with his entire family, especially his parents. He held onto me and just stayed quiet and cried into my shoulder. Eventually my mom came upstairs and we pulled away.
“Everything okay up here…?” I nodded and looked at Nick. Mama must’ve seen Nick’s demeanor and she asked again. “Are you sure…?”
“Nick’s just going through a difficult time right now mama that’s all. He’s going to be fine…” She looked at the two of us again before hugging both of us for comfort and then walking to the door.
“Well I’m here if y’all need to talk okay…?”
“Thanks mama…”
“Thanks Tina…” She smiled at us before closing the door and walking back downstairs. Again Nick and I were quiet and Emma started to cry. I began to get up to get her but Nick stopped me.
“I’ll get her…” He got up and walked into the nursery. 10 minutes later he came back in. “She was wet. I took care of it.” I smiled and hugged him.
“Thanks baby…” He hugged me back.
“No problem, she’s my baby too remember…?” I smiled and kissed him.
“Of course I do…” He actually smiled for real this time and kissed me back. We got back into bed and held each other. “You wanna talk now or tomorrow?”
“You have school tomorrow…” I kissed him.
“I’m taking a personal day with you and Emma.”
“Thanks baby…” I kissed him one last time before closing my eyes.
“Anytime…I love you…”
“I love you too…” We fell asleep and when I woke up in the morning Nick wasn’t anywhere in the room so I got up to check on Emma but she wasn’t there either. I walked downstairs and into the kitchen where Nick was feeding Emma and mama was making breakfast. Nick looked a lot better than he did last night.
“Morning Jess…” I smiled and kissed mama.
“Morning mama…” I walked over to Nick and kissed him, than I kissed Emma and sat at the table.
“Nick told me what’s going on and said you were staying home so you two could talk about it.” I nodded and looked at Nick who continued to feed Emma. “I’ll watch Emma for you guys too…”
“Thanks mama….”
“You’re welcome…” She put a plate of food down in front of me and Nick and she finished feeding Emma so we could eat. Ashlee was already on her way to school and daddy had left for work a while ago. After I finished eating I brought Emma upstairs and got her dressed. Nick came upstairs as I put her in her playpen and he gave her a kiss. I jumped in the shower and got ready while Nick kept an eye on Emma and when I was done we switched places. After the two of us were ready Nick asked if I wanted to go out somewhere and talk. I agreed, grabbed my purse and brought Emma down to my mother. We said goodbye and Nick opened my door for me and I got in. We drove away and he ended up taking me to the same park we went to just after he found out about Emma. We sat in a more secluded area under a tree. I sat across from him and he kept hold of my hand. Both of us were quiet unsure of what to say until I heard him talking quietly.
“I was calling her to tell her about Emma because I was so happy and excited you know…?” Alls I could do was nod. “And she told me she had something to tell me also, so I told her to go ahead and after she told me I was just numb and I just asked if she was okay and she said yes so we hung up. She’s not telling Drew yet because he’s going to visit tomorrow anyways.” I squeezed his hand and he gave me a grateful smile. “They were so happy so I just, I don’t understand how they could just get a divorce.” I didn’t know either, I did see them and they were so in love…to me at least.
“I don’t know baby but I’m sure a part of them still love each other a lot.” He nodded.
“I hope so, especially for mom’s sake.” He got teary eyed. “Dad was her life, she fell in love with him in 7th grade and they dated all through High School and college. She moved to New York just to attend the same college he was attending so she could be with him.” I also had tears in my eyes hearing about this.
“She lived for loving my father and then when she had me and my brother that became another part of her life she lived for.”
“Nick your mother is so full of love. I’m sure there was a serious important reason they decided to separate. Your mother has you and Drew and Lea and even me, I don’t know how good of help I can be but I’m here too.” I saw him look up and smile grateful again.
“She loves you, she really does.”
“I love her too, you two and Emma are the 3 most important women in my life.” He reached out his arms and I crawled into his lap and he held me. He kissed the top of my head. “I love you…” I smiled.
“I love you too…” We stayed and talked for the rest of the day and around 4 we went back to my house. The next day I went to school and when I got home Nick was walking with Emma in his arms over to the ringing phone. I waved and put my bag down. I went into the kitchen and browsed through the cabinets and fridge while listening to Nick still.
“Hey Drew…how’s it going?” I stopped and put the juice in the on the counter. He was quiet for a minute and they talked again. “Yeah, she told me the other day… How’s she doing…?” More silence… “Have you seen dad yet? Oh…yeah, I haven’t talked to him yet. I don’t know I just haven’t really let it digest. Jess and I talked about it yesterday. Who Jess…? She’s doing great, yeah she’s special…” I heard the smile in his voice and I smiled. “I love her…Emma…? She’s getting so big.” They talked a bit longer and then hung up and came into the kitchen.
“Hey…” I kissed him and then Emma.
“Hey…it was Drew, he said mom’s not that well and he hasn’t seen dad.” I nodded. The rest of the night Nick and I played with Emma and he helped me with my homework. A week later Nick still hadn’t spoken to his father and he talked to his mother once. She was staying at her house still; I think John was giving her the house. I guess she is holding up okay. I wanted to talk to her but I didn’t think it was my place to yet. That Saturday I was home with Emma, Nick had taken Ashlee out to the amusement park and mama and daddy went out for the day together. So I was taking care of Emma and doing my homework today. I rolled out of bed around 10:30am and Emma was crying so I fed her and changed her but she didn’t stop. That’s how most of my morning was and around 1:15pm I still couldn’t get her calm, the doorbell rang and I groaned. I hadn’t showered, my hair was a mess. I had a pair of Nick’s Cincinnati sweatpants on, and his Cincinnati tee-shirt so I didn’t look too flattering. To add to that, Emma had shared her breakfast and lunch with me all over her daddy’s tee-shirt. I opened the front door and was shocked to see Cate standing there…with suitcases. I smiled best I could and kept trying to quiet Emma.
“Cate…this is a surprise.”
“I know I’m sorry…I just…Nick told me he was staying here lately instead of his hour and well it’s a long story…” I stepped back.
“Oh no Cate, it’s okay…please c’mon in.” I motioned for her to come in. Emma kept screaming and Cate reached for her.
“Oh my baby…its okay, grandma is here…” I handed Emma over to Cate and grabbed Cate’s bags. “Oh honey, have Nicholas take those.”
“He took Ashlee to the amusement park today; it’s just me and Emma today.” I took her bags upstairs and into my bedroom. “You can stay in me and Nick’s bedroom and he and I will take the guest room.”
“Oh, you share a room?”
“Yeah…well he lives here…” She knew right?
“Oh really…? Nicholas never told me…”
“Really…? He moved in 2 weeks before you and John—” I stopped immediately. “Sorry…â€Â
“Its okay honey…come on let’s calm this baby down.” I smiled and she hugged me. “I’m happy I get to see you again.” I smiled and she and I went into the family room to play with Emma and talk. Emma finally quieted and was playing in her playpen. I made Cate a cup of tea and we sat at the table. I looked down at my appearance again.
“Cate, I’m sorry. I should at least change…I’m such a mess.”
“Don’t worry…changing your clothes to nice, clean ones isn’t worth it with a baby around.” We laughed; it was very true though…nothing ever stays clean with a baby around.
“I just gave up with my clothes and now I put her daddy’s clothes on.” She smiled.
“Aha! You learn very quickly my dear. It took me until Nicholas was almost 3 to learn that. After that I always walked around the house in John’s clothes.” She quieted at the end of her sentence and water glazed over her eyes. “I’m sorry…” She wiped her eyes and I put my hand atop hers.
“It’s okay…”
“I just…just seeing Nicholas happy and in love and seeing you two together…” A pause… “He loves you more than you know and I just don’t want him hurting you like his father did me…I don’t want him turning into his father.” I didn’t know what John did but I reached over and hugged her. After we pulled away we sat their quietly.
“Hey, why don’t you and I go shopping? I’ll shower and get ready real quick, Nick gave me his credit card so it’d be rude not to spend it. I’ll treat you to shopping…that always cheers us girls up! What do ya say…?” I looked at her hoping she’d say yes. She smiled.
“Okay, yeah…that sounds fun.” I hugged her again.
“Excellent! Can you just keep an eye on Emmy…?”
“Of course I can…” I walked towards the stairs when Cate called after me. “Jessica…?† I turned.
“Yeah…” She walked over and hugged me.
“Thank you…” I smiled and she pulled away.
“No thanking me…I love you like my mother and you’re the most important person in Nick’s life…I wanna help.”
“Well thanks but YOU are the most important person in his life…you and Em…”
“No, you are…you’re his mother.”
“And you’re the love of his life…there comes a time a mother has to step back into the shadow so to speak of their son. Especially my 1st born… That time comes when he’s in love and that’s you…it’s your time to not be in the shadow.” I smiled at her words. “Anyways, I love you too so go get ready, then we can get outta here and shop!” I laughed and ran upstairs. I didn’t know the whole story or a lot of the ‘Lachey history’ but I knew that would be okay. I’d learn it…eventually. It was all a matter of time…Cate had welcomed me to the family and…I was happy to be a part of it.

And Nick Makes 3… Chapter 10

~A Month Later~

~*Nick’s POV*~

“Nick that one goes upstairs be careful…!” Jessica yelled at me as I carried another box of my mom’s belongings up the stairs. She was moving into my house now that I was living with Jessica. Today was moving day…she stayed with Jess and I and the rest of the Simpson’s for a week and then went back home, packed and moved out here into my home. She took care of the divorce proceedings that she had to be present for and the rest from here on were a matter of handling in a phone call and via e-mail. I put the last box upstairs and walked down into the kitchen. Mom, Tina and Jess were sitting at the table, Emma in Jessica’s lap playing with her long blonde hair. Gosh, how long her hair had gotten in the past month. She kept going on about how she was growing it out for prom which was in…one week I said looking at the calendar on my way by. I promised to be with her for prom since she missed out on her junior prom. I smiled seeing mom and Tina talking…they’d become really close since my mom stayed with us for that week. They were great friends now.
“Hey ladies…I’m done. Drew just left he needs to get home to Lea.” I kissed Jessica and then leaned down and kissed Emma. “Hey buttercup…don’t pull mommy’s hair to too hard. Don’t want to hurt her.” I tickled her tummy and she giggled then reached out for me. I picked her up and sat in another chair. “Everything is moved and up where you wanted it mom.”
“Thanks dear…I appreciate it very much.”
“No problem…” I bounced Emma on my lap and she giggled. We stayed and visited with mom for the remainder of the day and headed back home around dinner time.
“You sure you don’t want to come over for dinner Cate?” Tina asked.
“No, I’ll be okay, I’m going to unpack and settle in thanks though Tina.”
“Alright well we’ll give you a call tomorrow. Night mom…” I kissed her cheek.
“Goodnight Nicholas. Give me my little girl…” She reached for Emma. “Night baby…” Emma smiled and she handed her back to me. Jess gave her a hug.
“Goodnight Mrs. Lachey…”
“Eh…eh… Jessica.” I snickered.
“Mom…” She smiled.
“That’s better…” She walked us out the front door and I buckled Emma in the back then got in next to her. We got back home and Jessica and I fed Emma while Tina cooked dinner. We played with Emma till dinner time and then we went and put her to bed.
“Goodnight Emmy…” I kissed her. “Daddy loves you…” Jessica leaned down and kissed her.

~*One Week Later*~

~*Jessica’s POV*~

“Jessica, honey Nicholas is here!”
“Okay mom…!” I yelled down as I looked in the mirror and did the final touches of my make up. Prom night was finally here. Nick had stayed over his mom’s last night because I didn’t want him seeing my dress or anything till prom night. My mom and I picked out the most gorgeous dress; it was light pink with an almost white tint to it and scattered on it in various spots were darker pink flowers on it. It was sleeveless and flowed to the ground. Nick (as a “prom gift”) had given me a diamond necklace and five diamond bangles to match. His stylist for award shows etc… had been able to pull a few strings and get them for the evening for me. I was over excited; I almost had a heart attack. His stylist in return had hooked me up with his hair stylist and she had done amazing things to my hair. It was covered in thousands of curls, strands and strands of curls. After she curled it she loosely pulled a few strands back and clipped them back…with a DIAMOND clip. Mama had done my make up, simple; silvery shadow for my eyes with some sparkle, regular ole’ mascara and eye liner then a little light pink blush and a lip gloss that matched the pink of my lips. I checked myself in the mirror once more, slipped on my matching shoes and grabbed my matching shawl and purse then headed downstairs. I smiled when I got down there. Nick was standing at the door with a happy Emma in his arms playing with his nicely gelled hair. They were both smiling and laughing. Once I reached the bottom stair Nick looked up and just stared at me.
“Whoa…” I blushed and he handed Emma to mom. “You look amazing…” He hugged me and gave me a kiss.
“Thanks…†
“Okay c’mon…pictures.â € Mom said.
“Hang on…” I went into the kitchen and got Nick’s corsage I had bought him; a white rose. I walked back out and pinned it to him. “Owwie…†I pricked myself. I tried again.
“Ow…!” Nick yelped and I snickered.
“Oops…sorry baby.” I giggled.
“Here honey lemme do it.” Mom cut in and pinned his lapel for me. Once that was done Nick pulled out a red rose corsage with white baby breaths surrounding it and a white ribbon to tie it off.
“Aww Nicky…I love it.” He smiled and slipped it on my small wrist. It was beautiful.
“Now pictures…c’mon.â € We laughed and went outside it was still light outside and mom wanted pictures of us by the wooden swing in the back and by the gazebo in the back. About a million pictures later (some with Emma in them) Nick and I headed out the front where he had a limo for us for the night.
“Jess…” Mom called. I turned around and she had my overnight bag in her hand.
“Thanks mom…” I took it and gave Emma another kiss before getting inside. Once we were in and sitting Nick pulled out a bottle of champagne.
“No getting drunk BEFORE prom Jess…” I laughed and stuck my tongue out. He poured us a gl[arse] and made a toast. The first sip I spit out going all over Nick.
“Oh baby I’m so sorry…” I tried holding my laughter in. I leaned over and took a napkin wiping his face. “Baby it’s so gross…I’ve never had it before.” He looked at me.
“Never would’ve guessed.” We laughed and I kissed him.
“Sorry…lets try again…” I took a sip and he put the napkin up in front of his face. We made another toast and enjoyed the ride to the Aqua Turf where the prom was being held. Nick and I walked in hand and hand receiving looks from everyone. Some nice…some not so nice. As soon as we walked in people were dancing all over the room, loud music blaring through the speakers. We walked over to our table, and put our things down.
“So…” Nick said. “Ready to dance…?” I smiled.
“Of course I am…” I took his hand and he led me out to the dance floor. Bryan Adams; Everything I do (I do it for you) began playing and Nick wrapped his arms around me holding me tightly to him. I in return wrapped my arms around his neck and rest my head on his shoulder. I smiled against his shoulder when I heard him begin singing to me.

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Nick sang into my ear and we danced along to the music.

Look into my heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - Ya I'd die for you

Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

On the last line he pulled back and looked into my eyes, singing right to me. I had a couple tears in my eyes and he leaned down and kissed me.
“Excuse me…this is the school prom not Hugh Heffner’s bedroom.” I turned and saw Mrs. Williamson standing there prying Nick and I apart. I sighed and we pulled away and went back to our table.
“I didn’t know this was the father-daughter dance.” I heard some girl whisper to her friend at the table next to us. I looked at Nick and knew he had heard it too. I started to cry a little and he held my hand.
“Don’t listen to them…” He soothed me. “C’mon, let’s go get something to drink…” He said trying to keep my mind off the girls. I nodded and he helped me out of my chair and we walked over to the table. He poured me a gl[arse] and we started back to our table.
“Oh miss gold digger is actually at the prom…and look at all the diamonds she’s wearing, what a user.” Tiffany Juliana sneered at me and all of her blonde [nice person] friends laughed.
“Well you can’t look like a princess too long Miss MOMMY! That’s OUR job!” She said and dropped her red punch all over my dress, her friends copied and left me in the middle of the floor with my dress completely ruined and I in tears.

Chapter 11

~*Jessica’s POV*~

‘Oh my god…positive…itâ⠬™s…its positive.’ I thought to myself as I stared down at the stick in my hand…I was pregnant. I sunk to the floor and put my face in my hands…I cried, mom was going to kill me…I don’t want to think about dad.

~*~

I walked down the hall and saw him…he was hanging out with all the jocks, that’s what is to be expected of him though…that is him. I walked over and he smiled and wrapped his arm around me.
“Hey baby…” He kissed me.
“Hey Casey…” I hugged him back. “Can we go somewhere please…? My house or yours I don’t care…somewhere.” I asked him quietly…the bell had rung 5 minutes ago.
“Sure…câ€⠢mon…” He took my hand and we headed to his house. “Mom and dad aren’t home yet.” I nodded and we went up to his room and sat on his bed…the bed…where IT happened. “Everything okay….?” I started to cry then and there.
“Casey, I took a pregnancy test the other day and…”
“No, no, no…” I didn’t even finish my sentence and he stood opposite me on the other side of the room.
“Casey…â€Â
“We used condoms…” He held the box up. “We did it once…I [freak]ed you ONCE!” He was screaming at me and I was crying more as he threw the condom box at me.
“Casey they don’t always work…”
“No….!” He walked to his desk and pulled out some money.
“What are you doing…?” I asked him and he took my arm.
“We’re going to the clinic…I’ll drop you off you can take the money…I’m not going to let a baby ruin MY football career…I’m going to college on a full scholarship for football, that bastard isn’t going to [freak] it up for me…” He threw me in the car and drove me to the clinic. He looked at me and handed me the money. “Here…take the money…get it taken care of, I’ll wait here…” I looked at him not believing this was actually happening. My parents were so Christian…I was…they’d never let me do this, and I don’t want this…I don’t believe in this. I cried and opened the door. I got out and walked in. When I got in there a younger nurse came over to me.
“Sweetheart…are you okay…?”
“Um…I just came here to take care of…” She led me into a private room and closed the door…I prayed. Almost an hour and ½ later I walked out and saw Casey’s car. I walked over and got in. He leaned over and kissed me.
“Everything settled…?” He asked.
“Yeah…”
“Good…” He put a hand on my knee and pulled out.
“Can I just go home tonight though…I mean, I’ll see you tomorrow in school…I’m just tired…”
“Of course baby…” He drove me home and parked in my driveway. He gave me a kiss and pulled away because I didn’t kiss him back. “Honey what’s wrong…?” I opened the car door.
“I didn’t get the abortion you bastard…I don’t have the heart to kill an innocent baby because unlike you…I HAVE a heart.” I threw his money at him. “Take your money and stay out of my life…” I got out and ran into the house…I never spoke to Casey again…he made nasty rumors about me for so long, and I’d see him in the halls but I didn’t acknowledge him…I didn’t care and 9 months later my beautiful daughter Emma was in my life.

~*End Flashback*~

I felt tears prick my eyes as I looked down at the stick in my hand; here it was… de-ja vu all over again. ‘Positive…†„¢ I walked out of the bathroom and Nick was in the kitchen.
“Hey sweetie…” I smiled and he hugged me then sat with Emma in her highchair and fed her her strained peas and bananas…gross, but Emma loved it. I watched him feed her…he was clueless a couple months ago and now he’s a pro. I sat next to him with my head on his shoulder as he fed her. When he was done he cleaned up and put her down for her nap. He came back into the kitchen and pulled me into his lap.
“What’s up…?” I rest my head against his shoulder and I sighed loudly.
“Can we talk…?” I looked up at him.
“Of course…what about baby…?” He ran his hand through my hair and I took a deep breath.
“I um…I think I’m…Iâ€⠢m pregnant Nick…” I looked up into his eyes trying to pick some emotion from them…nothing…

Chapter Twelve

Sorry to keep you all hanging but I hope you enjoy this part!

~*Jessica’s POV*~

I held my breath and looked at him more intently.
“Nick…Nicholas please say something…” I shook his arm.
“Wow…weâ€⠢re…well wow, we’re having a baby…” He said, not getting all the words out. I laughed.
“Yeah…imagine that…” He chuckled and looked into my eyes.
“Yeah...wow imagine that is right…so um…” He looked at me with question.
“Prom night…”
“Aha…I think I remember that night…” He teased me and I slapped him lightly on the arm; looking into his eyes I remembered it perfectly.

~*Flashback*~

After looking down at my dress I burst into tears and ran into the bathroom. I immediately wet a towel with ice cold water and wiped it repeatedly over my ruined dress but it was no use…it was ruined. I heard the door open and I tried to stop the tears, embarr[arse]ed enough at my appearance; I didn’t want to have to worry about the tears too. I kept wiping over my dress until I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up quickly. I saw Nick behind me as I looked up into the mirror.
“Nick…what are you doing in the girls’ room?” I tried speaking through my tears.
“I don’t care what room it is, I wanted to make sure you’re alright.” I smiled a little. He took some towels and wet them under the faucet. He took my hand in his and began wiping over the stain gently. For the next 20 minutes we attempted to remove the stain, finally giving up I just stopped him.
“It’s not going to come out…let’s just go.”
“Baby we don’t have to go back out there if you don’t want to.” He hugged me.
“I don’t…† After having such a miserable night at prom, he took me to the hotel we were staying at for the night and spoiled me rotten. He ordered everything even though I kept insisting he didn’t have to. He treated me like a queen…his queen. We ended up staying up all night, making love and talking, laughing, just having fun, we didn’t fall asleep until the sun began rising.

~*End Flashback*~

“…And that’s where it happened.” Nick said proudly. I looked at the smug ‘macho man’ look on his face and slapped him. After laughing a minute we settled and the mood was nothing but serious again.
“Nick…what are we going to do…?” I looked up at him. He leaned down, hugged me to him and kissed the top of my head.
“We my sweetheart…are going to have a baby…” I smiled loving the sound of that. We sat there for a while and I thought about what was happening…another baby. I mean, I was excited but was Nick? Could we do this…a little high schooler pregnant…not good for his career I’m sure. “Let’s see, tomorrow we can go baby shopping, buy little tiny, itty bitty baby outfits, and the little caps for them, the little shoes, their shoes are adorable.” He was making cute faces and hand gestures. “Oh and little toys for babies, babies have the best toys…tomorrow will be fun…” I smiled at his expressions.
“You’re happy right Nick…?” I asked nervous at what his answer might be.
“Happy…? Of course I’m happy…why wouldn’t I be?” I looked down at my hands.
“I don’t know…just wanted to make sure…” He lifted my chin and looked me in the eye.
“I’m beyond happy…I love you…” I smiled and he kissed me.
“I love you too…”

~*~

A couple days later Jessica and Nick walked out of the doctor’s office with sad, distraught moods. Neither of them said anything, Nick opened the car door for Jessica and she just got in saying nothing. It wasn’t until Nick came to a stop at the light that words were spoken.
“It’s okay Jess…” He placed a comforting hand on her leg but she pushed it away. He sighed.
“Home pregnancy tests are wrong sometimes, that’s why we have to go to the doctor’s…to be sure.” He tried making it easier for her. “It doesn’t mean we’ll never have a baby. It just means now isn’t the time.” She said nothing but turned her head to look out the window and she stayed that way until they pulled into the driveway. She got out without saying a word, slammed the car door. She ran past her mom and Cate who were in the hall walking out of the kitchen following Emma who was taking slow, very slow baby steps…her FIRST steps. Jess didn’t even notice; she ran into her room crying, and into the bathroom she tore the bathroom apart grabbing the three tests she’d taken and thrown out. All of a sudden Nick came barging through.
“Jessica…!† He yelled with a bit of concern and anger in his voice, Emma holding tightly to his shirt now rest in his arms. “Maybe if you took time to wait for me and walk into the house instead of rummaging through garbage you would’ve been there to see your daughter take her first ******* steps! But no, you can’t be convinced that the DOCTOR’S TEST was actually RIGHT!” He yelled back, by now Emma was crying and Cate and Tina were standing behind Nick. Jess just looked up and frantically, ignoring what Nick had just said and yelled.
“Three tests Nick! There is NO WAY three…THREE tests come back positive and the [freak]ing doctor’s is NEGATIVE! There is NO WAY!” She was crying and she shook the tests in her hands before collapsing in tears to the ground.
“What are you doing with the pregnancy tests Jessica?” Tina asked with shock and concern in her voice…along with anger.

End of Chapter 12.
